This Holiday Breakfast Scone Cobbler Is the Best Way to Start Your Day. Bar None.

Last minute shopping, decorations, wrapping presents, setting up the guest room for your in-laws. There are so many things to do this holiday season that it can be difficult to make time for the most important meal of the day. What you need is a holiday breakfast that makes feeding the family easy like Sunday morning. What you need are breakfast cobbler bars.

These bars have a base of Wolferman's scones and a layer of fresh fruit covered by delightfully crumbly scones. For my fresh fruit, I chose cranberries and Granny Smith apples because of their tart flavor and great texture. This is my favorite flavor combination for these bars, but other holiday flavors like pears, persimmons, or even citrus are delicious too.

For the crumble, I used Wolferman's strawberry and currant scones. They're my favorite, but the wild blueberry and citrus cranberry scones are a very close second. Your favorite packaged scone mix makes a quick and easy cobbler topping for these bars. Simply add a bit of vanilla and chopped pecans for an amazing crunch. Layer your fruit on top of your crumbled scones followed by your scone mix and pop it in the oven.

Once your bars have cooled, dust them with a bit of festive powdered sugar and cut and serve. They pair great with Wolferman's preserves like blueberry or strawberry.

Instructions

1
Preheat oven to 350° F.
For the scone crumble
1
In a medium bowl, crumble your favorite Wolferman's Bakery scones. Add flour and egg, mix until incorporated. Mixture should be crumbly. Set aside and prepare filling.
For the apple-cranberry filling
1
In a medium bowl, add cranberries and apples. Mix in spices, sugars, and cornstarch. Set aside and prepare cobbler topping.
For the scone cobbler topping
1
In a small bowl, mix together scone mix, vanilla extract, and pecans. Add water and mix until the batter is smooth but not too fluid. Add more water if necessary one tablespoon at a time.
Assemble the bars
1
Grease an 8x8 casserole dish. Spoon the scone crumble into the dish and lightly press crumble together. Do not press too firmly or it'll lose it's fun crumbly texture — and who doesn't love fun? Any small spaces will fill during baking.
2
Scoop the apple-cranberry filling on top of the crumble leaving the liquid behind.
3
Drop spoonfuls of the cobbler topping onto the fruit and lightly smooth it out. A few lumps are OK. They give the bars a more rustic appeal.
4
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until the top is brown and fruit juice has thickened. Wrap a few presents while you're waiting. (The holiday are all about multitasking.)
